Second edition of Leonardo Cernoti's translation of Magini's edition of Ptolemy, an exact reprint of the 1597-98 edition from the same press. Porro's small engraved maps were first printed in quarto format in the original Latin edition of Magini's version (Venice: Galignani 1596); this is their sixth appearance in print, following the Latin editions of 1597 (see preceding lot), 1608 and 1617 and the aforementioned 1597-98 Italian edition.
